Special U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff says Russian leader Vladimir Putin agreed to allow the U.S. and Europe to offer Ukraine a security guarantee resembling NATO's collective defense mandate.

President Donald Trump supports Russian leader Vladimir Putin's proposal for Moscow to take full control of the Donbas and freeze the front lines elsewhere for a deal with Ukraine.

The president of Ukraine and his European allies are to visit the White House on Monday, after President Trump backed Russia’s plan to end the war.

The highly anticipated summit ended without a breakthrough. Afterwards, Trump said Ukraine and Russia should proceed straight to seeking a full peace deal instead of a cease-fire.

Rubio laid responsibility on both Russia and Ukraine for refusing to make enough concessions for a ceasefire. “Both sides are going to have to give up something in order to get to the table, in order to make this happen. That’s — that’s just the way it is,” Rubio said.

President Trump offered security guarantees to deter future Russian aggression. But the offer was vague, prompting Kyiv to seek clarity.
